| Proverbs 14: (ASV) |
| 1) Every wise woman buildeth her house; But the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands. |
| 2) He that walketh in his uprightness feareth Jehovah; But he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him. |
| 3) In the mouth of the foolish is a rod for his pride; But the lips of the wise shall preserve them. |
| 4) Where no oxen are, the crib is clean; But much increase is by the strength of the ox. |
| 5) A faithful witness will not lie; But a false witness uttereth lies. |
| 6) A scoffer seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not; But knowledge is easy unto him that hath understanding. |
| 7) Go into the presence of a foolish man, And thou shalt not perceive in him the lips of knowledge. |
| 8) The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way; But the folly of fools is deceit. |
| 9) A trespass-offering mocketh fools; But among the upright there is good will. |
| 10) The heart knoweth its own bitterness; And a stranger doth not intermeddle with its joy. |
| 11) The house of the wicked shall be overthrown; But the tent of the upright shall flourish. |
| 12) There is a way which seemeth right unto a man; But the end thereof are the ways of death. |
| 13) Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; And the end of mirth is heaviness. |
| 14) The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways; And a good man shall be satisfied from himself. |
| 15) The simple believeth every word; But the prudent man looketh well to his going. |
| 16) A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil; But the fool beareth himself insolently, and is confident. |
| 17) He that is soon angry will deal foolishly; And a man of wicked devices is hated. |
| 18) The simple inherit folly; But the prudent are crowned with knowledge. |
| 19) The evil bow down before the good; And the wicked, at the gates of the righteous. |
| 20) The poor is hated even of his own neighbor; But the rich hath many friends. |
| 21) He that despiseth his neighbor sinneth; But he that hath pity on the poor, happy is he. |
| 22) Do they not err that devise evil? But mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good. |
| 23) In all labor there is profit; But the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury. |
| 24) The crown of the wise is their riches; But the folly of fools is only folly. |
| 25) A true witness delivereth souls; But he that uttereth lies causeth deceit. |
| 26) In the fear of Jehovah is strong confidence; And his children shall have a place of refuge. |
| 27) The fear of Jehovah is a fountain of life, That one may depart from the snares of death. |
| 28) In the multitude of people is the king's glory; But in the want of people is the destruction of the prince. |
| 29) He that is slow to anger is of great understanding; But he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly. |
| 30) A tranquil heart is the life of the flesh; But envy is the rottenness of the bones. |
| 31) He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker; But he that hath mercy on the needy honoreth him. |
| 32) The wicked is thrust down in his evil-doing; But the righteous hath a refuge in his death. |
| 33) Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding; But that which is in the inward part of fools is made known. |
| 34) Righteousness exalteth a nation; But sin is a reproach to any people. |
| 35) The king's favor is toward a servant that dealeth wisely; But his wrath will be against him that causeth shame. |
